Description

This program creates four pointer barriers around each XRandR screen, thus effectively jailing your mouse pointer to one physical screen.

Pointer barriers are mostly useful when there is more than one physical screen connected to your computer. Properly placed barriers can then make you feel like you're sitting in front of only one screen: When you throw your mouse in the upper right corner, it does not suddenly switch to another monitor.

Install

Binary package:

pkg install xpointerbarrier

From the ports tree:

cd /usr/ports/x11/xpointerbarrier/ && make install clean

To depend on this port in another port's Makefile:

RUN_DEPENDS=	xpointerbarrier>0:x11/xpointerbarrier

Packages

The version each package repository carries. “-” means the repository builds no package of it, “n/a” that there is no such repository.
